"Eyes" was a song that really suffered towards the end, but this one is strong with a good groove.

Very strong version from the last truly great set of shows the band ever did. Jerry's on here.

Great version. Brent's 'we might get a little wet..." ad lib is perfect.

Coming out of a jammed out "Corrina." Some interesting stuff throughout. This show is just dynamite.

Listened to this show today. I love this version...it's whimsical and full of energy.

Great guitar playing.
Jack Straw

Saratoga Performing Arts Center

That said, this version has to have the worst entry into the "Jack Straw from Wichita" finale ever. I'm not sure if Bob and / or Jerry forget the words, or if Bob, Brent, or Jerry fatally miscue the entrance, but it's a tragedy. At one point all three are singing different lyrics. Other than the rest of the song is aces.
